There's no denying it, this is hilarious and clearly the makers of "The Mandalorian" are having fun with it too. We go to Karga's office, where we see his receptionist is the Mythrol (Horatio Sanz), who Djarin froze in carbonite in the first episode of Season 1.

It seems there's a sizable Imperial base on the other side of the planet and despite supposedly having only a skeleton staff, if they can destroy this, then the Imperial presence on Nevarro will be gone forever. Using the Mythrol's landspeeder, they approach the base from the bottom of the cavern that it sits atop of.
